WolfQuest Wiki:Staff

Different users have access to different functions of the site. While anyone can do most things on the Wiki, including reading and editing (most) articles, certain members of staff may have increased abilities and access that may not be available to regular contributors. This article details each 'usergroup' and lists its members. FOr more information about user rights, see Help:User rights.

Bureaucrat Abilities

A bureaucrat has the same abilities of an administrator (see next section) but they can also grant other users bureaucrat, administrator, moderator, and rollback status on any Wiki where they are a bureaucrat.

Moderator Abilities

Moderators are users who have additional options available to manage thread conversations in the Forum and Message Wall features. These additional functions include:

Removing and restoring threads and replies from any user.

Closing and reopening threads.

Managing Forum boards.

Move threads from one board to another.

Highlight and un-highlight threads.

Having this status causes the MODERATOR tag to appear on the user's profile/userpage, and we grant them a green username.

Chat Moderator Abilities

Chat moderators are users who have chat moderator status in chat in order to moderate a Wiki's chat room. Their abilities include:

Kicking users from chat.

Blocking users from chat.

This will kick a user out of chat and ban them from returning until a chat moderator or an admin removes their "banned from chat" status at Special:UserRights, or the individual's user contributions.

Rollback Abilities

Anyone can revert vandalism and edits made in bad faith, but it takes a couple of clicks in the page history to get it done. Users with the rollback permission are able to undo such edits in one click, by using the rollback link on diff pages, user contributions list, or the list of recent changes.

These members are also known as 'helpers', and we grant them a blue username.
